Photosynthesis
Plants do both!
The process by which living
organisms convert chemical bond
energy into ATP.
Cellular
Respiration Two forms of cellular respiration:
Aerobic respiration – O2 is final
electron acceptor
Anaerobic respiration – O2 is not
final electron acceptor
Aerobic Respiration
Stoichiometric Equation:
C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + 30-32 ATP + heat
• Occurs in cytoplasm
• Glucose broken down
into 2 molecules of
pyruvate
• 2 ATP used & 4 ATP
produced
Glycolysis • Net gain of 2 ATP
• 2 NADH produced
